Dear Colleagues,

This issue brings you Alex Arnet, Chief Commercial Officer, Lucent Health discussing how employers can save money through customized health plan solutions using data transparency, cost control and superior care experiences for the member.

Despite the extension on the mask mandate announced by The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for planes and other public transportation until at least May 3, a federal judge has vetoed the decision. Dr. Ashish K. Jha, the new White House Covid response coordinator, said that the additional time would allow the C.D.C. to assess whether BA. 2, a subvariant of the coronavirus, is going to become a “ripple or a wave” in the United States. Regardless of this ruling, medical travelers will still be accessing care outside their home towns and will be encouraged, but not required, to wear masks during their travel.   

Please stay safe and tell me how you are breaking ground in these growing industries.
